A Simulative Approach for the Prediction of Mesoscale Residual Stress Fields in Solution‐Strengthened Ferritic Ductile Iron

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a 3D representative volume element‐based simulation approach to predict mesoscopic residual stress and strain fields in silicon solid solution‐strengthened ductile cast iron. By modeling phase transformation kinetics with an enhanced Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorov model, the effects of varying cooling rates on residual stresses are ...

Evaluation of Tip Loss Corrections to AD/NS Simulations of Wind Turbine Aerodynamic Performance

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
The Actuator Disc/Navier-Stokes (AD/NS) method has played a significant role in wind farm simulations. It is based on the assumption that the flow is azimuthally uniform in the rotor plane, and thus, requires a tip loss correction to take into account ...

Influence of atmospheric conditions on the power production of utility-scale wind turbines in yaw misalignment [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
The intentional yaw misalignment of leading, upwind turbines in a wind farm, termed wake steering, has demonstrated potential as a collective control approach for wind farm power maximization. The optimal control strategy, and resulting effect of wake steering on wind farm power production, are in part dictated by the power degradation of the upwind ...

How wind speed shear and directional veer affect the power production of a megawatt-scale operational wind turbine

open access: yesWind Energy Science, 2019
. Most megawatt-scale wind turbines align themselves into the wind as defined by the wind speed at or near the center of the rotor (hub height). However, both wind speed and wind direction can change with height across the area swept by the turbine ...
